Where the numbers come from
The club's own website, parents who paid, the club itself, and the club's own tax return.
Before you rely on a number, you want to know who said it. So did we. Every fee here says where it came from; there are four places.
1. The club's own website
We read each club's fee pages, PDFs and registration pages regularly and record the prices the club posts. A posted fee is one the club published itself. Every row links the page it came from and shows the date that page last showed that amount. We never read anything behind a login.
2. Parents who paid
If you paid a club, you can tell us what it charged. We publish your number as Awaiting a second report and count it in nothing until another parent, or the club's own site, agrees within 15%. Then it becomes Community Reported and the row says how many parents agree. Only the number is shown, never you.
3. The club itself
A club can claim its page for free, see every fee we show and confirm them all; corrections go through the report form. A confirmed row carries Club Confirmed and that day's date.
4. The club's own tax return
Most clubs are nonprofits and file a public return every year. Where we have matched one, the page shows what families paid the club in total, divided by an estimated roster: a per-player figure. It is an average of everything the club collects per head, dues, camps and tournaments included, so we never call it a fee, and show it grayer beside posted prices. A boarding academy's return covers the whole school, so we show no such figure for one.
When a club posts nothing
Many clubs keep every price behind a registration login. Then we say so, show when we last read the site, ask you for one number if you know it, and offer an alert. If the club's return gives a figure, that is the first number you see.
What we never use
A directory's word for a club's level, anything behind a login, anything a club pays for, or anything you type into the search box.
Quick answers
- Where does this site get club soccer fees?
- From each club's own website — fee pages, PDFs and registration pages — read regularly, with every fee linked to the page it came from and dated. Parents add what they paid, clubs can claim their page and confirm every row, and a nonprofit club's public tax return gives a per-player figure for what families paid in total.
- Why does a club show no price?
- Many clubs keep prices behind a registration login and publish nothing. The page says so, asks a parent who knows for one number, and, where the club files a return, shows what its return says families paid per player.
